Abstract: ABSTRACT METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS AUDITING OF TRANSACTIONS USING LEDGER-ANCHORED AI EXPLANATIONS A method for continuous auditing of transactions includes receiving a transaction from a source system (102), generating, by an artificial intelligence model associated with a model-version identifier, a decision for the transaction, generating a feature-attribution explanation object for the decision, and recording information relating to the decision to a cryptographic ledger (112). An explanation hash of the explanation object, a decision hash of the decision, and a model-version hash of the model-version identifier are each computed separately. A Merkle tree is built from the three hashes, and a Merkle root of the Merkle tree is committed to the cryptographic ledger (112) in place of the three hashes. The explanation hash is verifiable against the Merkle root independently of the version of the artificial intelligence model that produced the explanation object. (Fig. 1)
